#1 He musta learned what happens when the Hezbos start cooking off those fireworks, IAF boomers.

#2 Fuad's word is as reliable as a fa*t.

#3 I wonder if they seize more than a small fraction of the total flow.

"See? I claim to have seized three rusty AK-47s. Proof positive that I am on your side."

#4 Fuad Siniora and Koffi the Comedian what a team it is. It won't be long till Hebollah will kick him out....."Each one hopes that if it feeds the crocodile enough, the crocodile will eat him last"....Winston Churchill

#6 Every silver lining has another silver lining - at least he knows what he's expected to do - and say.

#7 Probably obsolete, non-working, without ammo, stuff like what shows up to the "gun buy-back" programs the liberal idiots do in our cities.

#8 Yeah, sounds credible to me. I trust the Lebs implicitly.

#9 even if its a lie, or even if its only obsolete non-working stuff, this sets a precedent. If Hezb and Syria sit by while Siniora SAYS hes seized arms, it makes it just a tad less credible for them to get upset if and when he later really does so.

OTOH Siniora has a huge incentive to make things look good NOW, to end the blockade. Once the blockade ends we can expect positive moves to slow down.

#10 If you fired off your rockets would there be anything left at the launch point of value? I'm wondering if they grabbed spent ordinance and claimed a victory.

#11 Michael Totten had some photographs of literal museum pieces sitting outside of a Hezbollah propaganda museum near the border, before the war. Wonder if that gave one of Siniora's people an idea...
